“Don't wear yourself out Dad."Is that your way of telling your old man to shut up?”

“I don't want to wear your dad's clothes. He hates me.""You'd rather wear mine?"Nash scowled.”

“Shut off the door and don't let the light hit you in the ass on your way out.”

“Tell your lizard (brain) to shut up.”

“They fuck you up, your mum and dad. They may not mean to, but they do.They fill you with the faults they had And add some extra, just for you.But they were fucked up in their turn By fools in old-style hats and coats,Who half the time were soppy-stern And half at one another's throats.Man hands on misery to man. It deepens like a coastal shelf.Get out as early as you can, And don't have any kids yourself.”

“One of the things I am very aware of not having in my life is the love of my father. ...but I know now that it is hard to make up that loss in the life of a daughter.It's your dad who tells you that you are beautiful.Its your dad who picks you up over his head and carries you on his shoulders.It's your did who will fight the monsters under your bed.It's your dad who tells you that you are worth a lot, so don't settle for the first guy who tells you you're pretty.”
